Cascina Montalbano

Alessandro Cancelliere does everything by himself in this small vineyard of one and a half hectares. His winery is an old farmhouse with some remains of Renaissance frescoes, which are reproduced n the label. A beautiful place!

This Boca, from the Montalbano cru, is perhaps the most traditional one in the sense of less “modern" from a technical point of view. We think highly of it. Vespolina at 30% and Nebbiolo at 70%, very low yield, long maceration and spontaneous malolactic (secondary) fermentation make it a "natural" wine. Alessandro tries to avoid adding sulphites.
